An eco friendly and internationally renowned destination that combines rustic with luxury, and natural beauty with simplicity. The word is out about Tulum, a once-unknown beach town that has managed to maintain its quiet charm, despite its growing popularity, much of it due to its otherworldly beach quality. Overlooking the golden sand, of course, are the Mayan ruinas, perched on a rocky cliff and watching over all the surrounding natural wonders.

Tulum Beach, Hotel Zone | See All Villas

It’s difficult to picture what lies behind the jungle curtain that hides the hotel zone of Tulum, but discovering it is like opening the doors to a barefoot, hippie wonderland. Flanked by the gorgeous coastal ruins of Tulum on one side and the Biosphere of Sian Ka’an on the other, this stretch of the Riviera Maya beach caters to those who prefer upscale luxury with a boho edge, great beaches, natural living and the option of chill nighttime entertainment. You can also shop in funky boutiques selling unique art and fashion – like maxi dresses and flowy, yoga-friendly everything – and eat the best of modern Mexican cuisine.

Aldea Zama | See All Villas

Combining Tulum eco-charm and luxury living standards, Aldea Zama invites you to set roots and grow in a planned community, without the any of the stigma. This eco-friendly is surrounded by nature and also all the attractions of the Riviera Maya, with Tulum just a few minutes away and Playa del Carmen only one hour off.

Investors will love Aldea Zama’s inherent potential, nestled in one of the Riviera Maya’s most in-demand areas. Perfect for families, it is a lush village of winding roads flanked by jungle, perfectly bikeable and well-located for quick excursions to the beach, town or restaurants of the hotel zone.

Tulum Town

Venture from the beaches of Tulum and the hotel zone (perhaps by bike) to the other side of the highway and into the town itself and you will be rewarded. Sure, you’ll find the same tourist shops selling tacky souvenirs, but spend a few minutes exploring smaller streets and you’ll also discover artesanal bakeries, local ice cream shops, shady parks, and delicious, hole-in-the-wall restaurants you’ll want to return to again and again. Think tacos el pastor for under a buck and authentic, refreshing horchata. This is the way Mexicans live and they’ll be happy to welcome you for a visit.
